BMW's Nürburgring Edition M2, M3 and M4 Cost About $26,000 More Than the Standard Cars
The anniversary M2 starts at $93,050, the M3 at $105,300, and the M4 Coupé at $108,000 before a $1,350 destination charge — roughly $26,000 above the standard cars on bmwusa.com.
BMW of North America has put U.S. prices on the "100 Jahre Nürburgring" editions of the M2, M3, and M4 Coupé, and the anniversary treatment adds roughly $23,500 to $26,000 to each car compared with the standard models listed on bmwusa.com at press time.
The M2 is the entry point at $93,050 with the six-speed manual. The eight-speed M Steptronic automatic costs $300 more and brings remote engine start. BMW is offering the edition on the rear-wheel-drive M2 only.
The M3 comes two ways: the base six-speed manual sedan at $105,300 and the Competition xDrive at $114,600. The M4 Coupé mirrors that split at $108,000 for the manual and $117,500 for the Competition xDrive. M Carbon Ceramic brakes with gold calipers are an $8,500 option on all four M3 and M4 variants.
A $1,350 destination and handling charge applies to every car and is not included in the figures above.
What the money buys
All three cars get Nürburgring Green, a paint developed for the edition, with Black Sapphire metallic as the alternative. On an M3 or M4 in black, BMW adds green accents to the kidney grille frames. The M2 rides on Style 930M wheels in high-gloss black; the M3 and M4 use Style 826M wheels in black with green accents. Edition graphics land on the front doors, C-pillars, or rear quarters depending on the model, and stripes run across the carbon roof.
Inside, each car has a black cabin with green and white contrast stitching and an M Alcantara steering wheel with a 12 o'clock marker.
The M2 package is the most equipment-heavy for its price: M carbon roof, M carbon bucket seats, carbon-fiber exterior trim, a heated Alcantara-trimmed steering wheel, M Shadowline lights, a head-up display, wireless charging, and the M Driver's Package. The M3 and M4 bundle the Executive Package, the Parking Assistance Package, M Drive Professional, M Shadowline lights, and the M Driver's Package; the M3 also gets Full Merino leather.
How the premium stacks up
BMW's release doesn't quantify the markup, but the company's own consumer site does. At press time, bmwusa.com listed the 2027 M2 Coupe from $69,500, which puts the edition car $23,550 higher. The M3 Sedan was listed at $79,300 and the M3 Competition xDrive at $88,600, both $26,000 below their anniversary counterparts. For the M4, the 2027 Coupe at $82,200 and the Competition xDrive at $91,700 sit $25,800 under the edition cars.
Part of that gap is equipment that costs extra on a standard car, such as the carbon bucket seats, the carbon roof, and the Executive Package, so the effective premium for the paint and badging is smaller than the raw difference. BMW hasn't broken it down.
What BMW hasn't said
The three motorcycles in the same edition, the M 1000 RR, M 1000 R, and M 1000 XR, are each capped at 100 units worldwide and come with the M Track Package, carbon wheels, and a "one of 100" marking on the airbox cover. The U.S. release gives no production limit for the cars. Nor is there an order date: BMW says M3 and M4 Coupé production begins in November 2026 and the M2 follows in April 2027, with U.S. delivery timing not specified.
The U.S. lineup is also narrower than the one BMW announced globally on September 10. That release included the M3 Touring, M5 Sedan, and M5 Touring, and highlighted M Ignite, a pre-chamber ignition system BMW says has been fitted to the inline-six M2, M3, and M4 engines since July and August. The U.S. release lists only the M2, M3, and M4 Coupé and doesn't mention M Ignite.
The anniversary itself falls in 2027, a century after the circuit opened. Whether American buyers get a hard production cap to match the motorcycles is the open question, and BMW hasn't answered it yet.
